Bonjour!
A big welcome to planDisney, Ruth! Thank you for visiting us to ask your question today. It looks like you are planning an exciting trip to Europe, which will include a visit to
Disneyland Paris! I have been lucky enough to visit all of the Disney Parks in the world, and in my opinion,
Disneyland Park in Paris is the most beautiful of them all – and as a Californian, I imagine you are very familiar with Disneyland Resort, so you know just how tough that competition is!
Disneyland Paris uses dynamic pricing, so depending on demand, there can be some variation in ticket cost. You have the option of either
1-park or 2-park tickets, known more commonly as “hopper tickets” in the US. You can also choose between dated or undated tickets – if you select undated, you will need to make a park reservation before your visit and be mindful of block-out dates before purchasing. I highly recommend the 2-park tickets, as the price difference is not significant, and Disneyland Park and Walt Disney Studios Park (soon to be Disney Adventure World) are right next door to each other, meaning you can be riding Hyperspace Mountain one minute and “dropping in” to the Tower of Terror the next!
Overall, the absolute best-value way to visit Disneyland Paris is to consider a
Hotel + Ticket Package. Not only will you get to choose from a
beautifully themed Disney Hotel just a short walk from the entrance to the Disney Parks, but you will also benefit from Extra Magic Time, which gives you access to the Disney Parks an hour before regular park opening! Plus, the tickets included within the package are heavily discounted and cover every day of your stay, including arrival and departure days.
Visit the Disneyland Paris website to price up your Disney Park tickets or explore Hotel + Ticket Packages based on your travel dates. Top tip – changing your arrival date by just a couple of days either way can sometimes lead to significant savings in my experience.
I hope this helps to answer your question today, Ruth, and that you have fun planning your visit to Disneyland Paris (planning is half the fun, right?) If you have any further vacation planning questions as you prepare for your trip, please
reach out to me. I’d love to help!
See you on Main Street, Paris!
